With the release of its fourth studio album, Believe, Emerson Drive secures its
place as the premiere band in contemporary Country music. The album, produced by
Josh Leo and Teddy Gentry (of the legendary country band Alabama), showcases all of
the attributes that have fueled the group's long, steady rise through the country ranks--
lead singer Brad Mates' passionately expressive vocals; the extraordinary musicianship
of band mates Danick Dupelle (guitar), Dale Wallace (keys), David Pichette (fiddle) and
Mike Melancon (drums); the quintet's ability to choose first-rate songs, coupled with
their own growth as songwriters; and their ability to capture in the studio the energy that
has made them one of modern music's must-see live acts.
Believe, a co-release of The Valory Music Co. and Midas Records, captures the
most extraordinary period in the group's history. Their last album, Countrified, gave
them their first #1 single (the smash "Moments"), earned them nominations for a dozen
major awards, including a Grammy, and set the stage for Believe.
